Stuff like this will only make the situation worse.
Might as well join the military if you can't play CSGO.
Fight Azov in real life.
Not to diminish the war cost of a conflict, but Argentina invaded and attempted to annex the Falklands due to their territorial sea claim. It's not an Argentinian territory, nor are the generations of people living in it Argentinian. Ukraine is a sovereign nation, with 44 million people, with its own language, its own culture and its own history being invaded by a tyrannical regime that still believes in spheres of influence. It's absolutely NOWHERE near the same and equating the stupidity of the Falklands to what's happening now is wrong.
The amount of errors here are monumental, but again: No politics allowed here, will stick to that.

No. Stupid idea. It’s just entertainment.They should do it. The people of Russia will put pressure on Putin if things they like are taken away because of his actions.
"Things" the russian people will be hit by the santions on the banking system, so its an extension of that. The shitter life is for russian people because of Putins actions the less popular he will be.No. Stupid idea. It’s just entertainment.

Ban them from CS:GO and Dota. That would really hit them.
Most Russian's have no idea there Is even a "war" happening, anything that makes them wonder "why?" and triggers them to go and discover the truth is worth a shot. Plus Dota2 games will be way less toxic.
I've studied a crapton about Argentina (at least it's history post-WW2) for university, that guy is 100% wrong.The amount of errors here are monumental, but again: No politics allowed here, will stick to that.
Pixel count and occasional frame drop.If you cant go to war over fucking 9/11, what do you go to war over?
The world should sanction Israel for the invasion of Palestine, also should sanction USA for the invasion of Afghanistan.
I’m sorry, but do the people of Ukraine routinely carry out murderous hate filled attacks against other religions and countries? Do they say death to Russia while stabbing a Russian guards? Do they use their people to protect their rockets?The world should sanction Israel for the invasion of Palestine, also should sanction USA for the invasion of Afghanistan.
Losing access to games is the least of their problems when Putin is conscripting 18 year olds and sending them to die with no training. The idea with sanctions is to make it so even the most isolated "don't give a shit about politics" person has to figure out why their CC's stopped working and they don't have access to western entertainment.Is it me or does no one have any empathy to the innocent people in Russia. They can't help what putin is doing yet we are messing with their ability to eat, taking their money, and now entertainment.
How is this any better?
Wouldn't it be easier to just have a ukraining assassin /sniper take out putin?
Why punish Russian people.
As an American I don't like it. I wouldn't want to be punished over something Biden does.
One crazy man they elected. Russian people should be held accountable and pressured until they correct their mistake.
Talk about cherry picking two opposite extremes for the photos
We need to literally wipe Russia off the face of the map (figuratively speaking)!
As soon as they realize they are without porn they will lay down their arms.
Of all the things you could use against the USA, you choose Afghanistan, which attacked the US first? (9/11)The world should sanction Israel for the invasion of Palestine, also should sanction USA for the invasion of Afghanistan.
Imagine if COD or Battlefield got a patch that made one team all wear Putin faces today? The player count numbers would go through the roof.I think they should get to keep Call off Duty, but the face of every enemy should be replaced with Putin’s face.
Maybe it’ll lead to something good happening
Exactly. We need to show the world it’s not acceptable. Make it less appealing for China to invade TaiwanYes, I know, but the fact is that crazy man is using the whole Russian Satate to invade other country and kill civilians, while threatening the rest of us with nuclear weapons, and the only option we have left is let Russia know in a peaceful way that we don't support that behavior and that it has consequences for them too.
I have nothing against Russian people so if someone from Russia is reading me I want to make clear I intend no offense to them, but what's happening is just unacceptable and we can not and should not tolerate it.
Typical Russian NPCsRussia is invading a democratic country, conscripting and tricking 18 year olds and sending them into the meat grinder, and has an unstable and insane dictator for a leader... BUT HOLD ON imma post a 5 paragraph idiotic hot take on why murica is bad.
He is not mad he just power hungryToo bad many good Russian people have to suffer at the whim of a mad man.
Technically Saudis attacked us. The taliban wouldn't give up OBL and ALQ which is why we invaded.Of all the things you could use against the USA, you choose Afghanistan, which attacked the US first? (9/11)
Even worse are the people who are old enough to know better, yet run with an opinion before knowing all the facts.Yeah unfortunately we are going to have to suffer a lot of hot takes from people born in 2010.
Lol how clueless can you be, alqaeda attacked USA not Afghanistan. USA made up the excuse of Afghanistan having mass destruction weapons to invade the country and at the end it was for nothing, just to destroy a whole country.Of all the things you could use against the USA, you choose Afghanistan, which attacked the US first? (9/11)
Again, another person clueless thinking a group like alqaeda represent the whole country. Looks like the media did the job brainwashing people. We are doomed for real for real.I’m sorry, but do the people of Ukraine routinely carry out murderous hate filled attacks against other religions and countries? Do they say death to Russia while stabbing a Russian guards? Do they use their people to protect their rockets?
Do they strap bombs to themselves and fantasize about committing genocide?
Who’s the cutie on the right? asking for a friend

people will move to other platform ? more like good luck selling your console/games again in Russia.Russia is a pretty big gaming market, and no one company is going to want to stop supporting it when it would give their competitors a huge advantage. It's like the modern gaming corporate landscape Cold War.
Sony doesn't want to do it, because people will move to Xbox.
Xbox doesn't want to do it, because people will move to PlayStation.
Even if they both do it, there will probably be a huge surge in gaming spend with Steam.
You sure you don't have Afghanistan and Iraq confused there somewhere,buddy?Lol how clueless can you be, alqaeda attacked USA not Afghanistan. USA made up the excuse of Afghanistan having mass destruction weapons to invade the country and at the end it was for nothing, just to destroy a whole country.
Isn't Russia a huge piracy nation anyway?people will move to other platform ? more like good luck selling your console/games again in Russia.
They invaded both placesYou sure you don't have Afghanistan and Iraq confused there somewhere,buddy?
Isn't Russia a huge piracy nation anyway?
maybe they will lose users, Russia is PC territory anyway. what will hurt them in digital world cutting off internet from whole Russia.Isn't Russia a huge piracy nation anyway?
...and fire up the torrentsTurn off their game consoles
You keep repeating it doesn't makes it true. There's no 18 on Ukraine. Only paid professionals. If you saw some paramilitary looking guys then it was separatists forces, simple as that. War on Ukraine was happening for 8 years.Losing access to games is the least of their problems when Putin is conscripting 18 year olds and sending them to die with no training.
I’m sorry, but do the people of Ukraine routinely carry out murderous hate filled attacks against other religions and countries?
Do they say death to Russia while stabbing a Russian guards?
Now? Yes. Yes, they're hiding their forces in towns full of civilians. How else would you call it?Do they use their people to protect their rockets?
Russia has actually improved alot over the years the night life is great. I dont know why people want Russian citizens to suffer.Given the wealth of an average Russian citizen, can they even afford these machines and games?
No no no, you’re not allowed to say that. UK is good and Argentina is bad…..
Dont forget Ukraine has made plenty of moves and threats to take Crimea. https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2021/03/20/ukra-m20.html
The fighting didnt start this year, only idiots who watch the news for a day and think they are experts because they repeat what is told
